Chris, come on. This is absurd. Read the threads in my sig. If you like being here then you'll start to absorb and follow them. ALL of them. Some noob guidelines will do wonders for you.

And if this was a serious thread, then woah nellie.

Of the 2. Sp4 18s for sure.

Out of your budget but 2 IA warden 18"s would be nasty.

Those subs are about as different as you can get. But if I had to choose, o would go with fi. Remember you can't buy recones for kickers.

kicker solo x yes you can buy recones and its easy to put no slicing or cutting with a sharp blade some screws hold it in place i believe      Warden-18 D2 – Incriminator Audio 18" or fi sp4 18 or btl n2 18 which one gets louder from those 3

Wtf? Nobody can tell you which will be louder! Comes down to the install!

Do yourself a favor and read about loudspeaker parameters and understand their meaning. It will be beneficial to you.

If You Want "SPL", Concrete Your Cherokee, Build An Enclosure Tuned In The 45hz And Up Region, And Buy The Wardens. If You Want A Setup That Is Actually Feasible For Music, I.e. A "Daily" Setup, I'd Opt For The SP4's, As I Truly Believe Those Are The End-All-Be-All Of High Thermal Handling "Daily" Drivers. If Being Loud On A TermLab Or Other SPL Meter Is Your Goal, (Which By Definition, To Me, Is "SPL".) Don't Bother With Music. You Either Want Numeric Performance, Or Audible Performance. This Isn't Aimed Directly At You Either, I Think A Lot Of People Could Benefit From This Principle. And As 98GMC Said, There Are Infinite Variables That Will Determine What Is Louder Until You Try, Cabin Geometry Being Just One Of Many.

Two new recones from Fi will be about $250, since that matters to you...

Cabin geometry plays a big role . You're right BIGC.

I heared some setups in my car; and in another (smaller and different one) and all I can say is that it was soooo different ! It was hard to beleive.

My car was always the quieter one. :(
